Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement for determining the position of a magnetic-field-sensitive sensor unit in the magnetic field of a magnet arrangement having an at least substantially bar-shaped contour.
  • AMR sensors anisotropic magnetoresistive
  • the magnetic field lines of the magnetic field generated by the bar magnet in this case run, as shown in Fig. 1, from the magnetic north pole which points upward in the figure to the magnetic south pole which points downward in the figure.
  • the magnetoresistive sensor is arranged in a plane generated by Cartesian coordinates x and y, in which plane the schematically illustrated field line also runs and likewise the bar magnet is arranged with its longitudinal center axis. If the position of the bar magnet with respect to the magnetoresistive sensor changes, both the field strength in the y direction extending perpendicular to the longitudinal center axis of the bar magnet and the field strength in the x direction extending parallel to the longitudinal center axis of the bar magnet change at the location of the magnetoresistive sensor. Both field components have an influence on a bridge output signal that is output by the Wheatstone bridge circuit of the sensor. The bridge output signal is proportional to the field strength in the y direction, but the sensitivity of the sensor decreases as the field strength in the x direction increases.
  • the field strength in the x direction has a constant sign for all positions of the bar magnet with respect to the magnetoresistive sensor that are to be measured. This is important so as to avoid what is known as flipping, that is to say an inversion of the sensor transfer characteristic. If the sensor is located at the upper end of the magnet, that is to say is pushed along the motion coordinate toward its north pole, then a negative value is measured for the magnetic field strength of the magnetic field in the y direction that is generated by the bar magnet.
  • the sensor is located at the lower end of the magnet, that is to say is pushed along the motion coordinate toward its south pole, then a positive value is measured for the magnetic field strength of the magnetic field in the y direction that is generated by the bar magnet.
  • Fig. 2 shows, by way of example, a variation over time of this bridge output signal at a supply voltage of 5 N for a change in position of the sensor with respect to the bar magnet along the motion coordinate between the north pole and the south pole of the bar magnet of at most ⁇ 5 mm for a bar magnet having a length of 10 mm.
  • the bridge output signal is given as a voltage in millivolts having the designation "U out /mV" and the change in position of the sensor with respect to the bar magnet along the motion coordinate is given as a value of the Cartesian coordinate x, calculated from the center between the north pole and the south pole of the bar magnet, having the designation "x/mm”.
  • Fig. 1 The range along the motion coordinate between the north pole and the south pole of the bar magnet that can be used in this arrangement for position measurement is shown in Fig. 1 by the designation "displacement range". It can be seen that this range along the motion coordinate that can be used for position measurement makes use of the dimension of the bar magnet between its north pole and its south pole only to an insufficient extent. Using the arrangement shown in Fig. 1, it is therefore necessary to select the length of the magnet, that is to say the dimension of the bar magnet along the motion coordinate, to be considerably greater than the range that can be used for position measurement. In the example shown in Figs. 1 and 2, a bar magnet is required which is approximately 1.5 times longer that the range that can be used for position measurement. This is disadvantageous on account of the increased space requirement of the arrangement and also the material requirement for the bar magnet.
  • this object is achieved by an arrangement for determining the position of a magnetic-field-sensitive sensor unit in the magnetic field of a magnet arrangement having an at least substantially bar-shaped contour along an at least substantially rectilinear motion coordinate that extends parallel to a longitudinal axis of the at least substantially bar-shaped contour, in which the magnetic-field-sensitive sensor unit is intended to measure a component of the magnetic field which extends in a plane that is at least substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the at least substantially bar-shaped contour in a manner at least substantially perpendicular to this longitudinal axis, and the magnet arrangement has a magnetic north pole in the region of a first end of the at least substantially bar-shaped contour, a magnetic south pole in the region of a second end of the at least substantially bar-shaped contour, and a narrowing of the at least substantially bar- shaped contour in the central region extending between the north pole and the south pole.
  • the invention is based on the knowledge that a shortening of the magnet arrangement can be achieved if it is possible to generate significant field strengths in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the magnet arrangement, that is to say in the direction of the motion coordinate or in the x direction, even at the ends of the magnet arrangement in the region of the magnetic north and south poles.
  • the invention achieves this result, using the described knowledge, in an advantageous manner by the measures according to the invention.
  • the exit angle of the field lines at the ends of the magnet arrangement in the region of the magnetic north and south poles is changed, so that greater magnetic field strengths are generated in the x direction.
  • a shortening of the magnet arrangement can be achieved without changing the extent of the range that can be used for position measurement.
  • the narrowing of the at least substantially bar-shaped contour corresponds at least in sections to a shape that at least substantially follows the profile of an ellipse.
  • the narrowing of the at least substantially bar-shaped contour corresponds at least in sections to a shape that at least substantially follows the profile of a cycloid.
  • the magnetic-field-sensitive sensor unit is designed with a Wheatstone bridge of magnetoresistive elements, the longitudinal direction of which extends at least substantially along the motion coordinate.
  • a sensor unit is given in a simple and cost-effective manner by the abovementioned magnetoresistive sensor of the type KMZ 10 B, as sold by the company Philips Semiconductors.
  • the magnet arrangement is connected to this first body and the sensor unit is connected to the second body, in order to determine the position of the first body with respect to the second body along the motion coordinate,
  • the sensor unit is connected to the body which is arranged fixedly with respect also to an evaluation and control arrangement that is to be connected to the sensor unit, and the magnet arrangement is connected to the body which is designed to move with respect to said first body.
  • the first and second bodies are formed by parts of a motor vehicle.
  • the first and second bodies are formed by parts of the internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle.
  • the second body comprises part of a valve mechanism for the internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, and the first body is designed with a part of the valve mechanism that can move with respect thereto.
  • the invention can be used as an advantageous configuration for an electromagnetic valve mechanism for the internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, in which the position of an armature, comiected to a valve disk, in an electromagnetic actuator that operates the valve is to be measured for the purpose of regulating the speed of placing the valve disk onto the valve seat. It should be taken into account that typical valve lifts in internal combustion engines of motor vehicles move between 8 and 12 mm, and in exceptional cases even greater valve lifts may occur. For this reason, an arrangement is required that can detect a rectilinear movement over such a range.
  • the arrangement according to the invention is preferably suited to this purpose not only on account of its compact design and its robustness but also because it deals with the generation of a sensor output signal with the necessary processing speed.
  • the arrangement according to the invention with an "AMR" sensor has sufficiently rapid signal processing. Moreover, the arrangement according to the invention is able to supply precise information about the measured position, the so-called “absolute position" of the actuator, in any operating situation and thus even immediately upon startup.
  • FIG. 1 shows an arrangement according to the prior art for linear position measurement using a magnetoresistive sensor of the type KMZ 10 B having a so-called standard bridge.
  • Fig. 2 shows, by way of example, the variation over time of the bridge output signal of the magnetoresistive sensor of the type KMZ 10 B in the arrangement of Fig. 1.

  • FIG. 3 an arrangement for linear position measurement using a magnetoresistive sensor of the type KMZ 10 B is again shown, as is known from the abovementioned data sheet "General - Magnetic field sensors" of 9 January 1997, page 4.
  • the arrangement of Fig. 3 shows the use of this magnetoresistive sensor having a magnet arrangement that is in this case again designed as a bar magnet.
  • the magnetic field lines of the magnetic field generated by the bar magnet in this case run, as shown in Fig. 3, from the magnetic north pole which points upward in the figure to the magnetic south pole which points downward in the figure.
  • the magnetoresistive sensor is arranged in a plane generated by Cartesian coordinates x and y, in which plane the schematically illustrated field line also runs and likewise the bar magnet is arranged with its longitudinal center axis. If the position of the bar magnet with respect to the magnetoresistive sensor changes, both the field strength in the y direction extending perpendicular to the longitudinal center axis of the bar magnet and the field strength in the x direction extending parallel to the longitudinal center axis of the bar magnet change at the location of the magnetoresistive sensor. Both field components have an influence on the bridge output signal that is output by the Wheatstone bridge circuit of the sensor.

  • the bar magnet used in the arrangement shown in Fig. 3 has a narrowing in the central region between its magnetic north pole at the first end of the at least substantially bar-shaped contour and its magnetic south pole at the second end of its at least substantially bar-shaped contour.

There, the bridge output signal can thus likewise still be used for the desired position measurement.

  • the first compression spring 24 is supported by its other end on the cylindrical block, namely, in the example of embodiment shown, on the first guide 15 for the valve shaft 1 on the valve disk side.
  • the second compression spring 25 is supported by its other end on the adjusting screw 19, namely, in the example of embodiment shown, on the second guide 20 for the valve shaft 1. hi this way, the first compression spring 24 acts to close the valve, that is to say to press the valve disk 12 against the valve seat 14. If there were no actuator, then the first compression spring 24 would ensure that the valve is tightly closed.
  • the second compression spring 25 acts to open the valve, that is to say to lift the valve disk 12 off the valve seat 14. If there were no actuator, then the second compression spring 25 would ensure that the valve is opened. Both springs operate "against one another".

  • the armature 21 If current passes through the first electromagnet 2, which is the upper electromagnet in Fig. 5, then the armature 21 is drawn upward and the valve is closed. Accordingly, the armature 21 moves downward and opens the valve if current passes through the second electromagnet 3, which is the lower electromagnetic in Fig. 5. If there is no current passing through either of the electromagnets 2, 3 then the armature 21 is kept in the aforementioned central position by the springs and the valve is half-open.
  • the armature 21, by virtue of the spring resistances, then swings back until it reaches its lower position, ideally until it has almost reached it but not quite on account of the frictional forces in the mechanical construction, this lower position, the armature 21 bears tightly against the second electromagnet 3, with the second, upper spring 25 being relaxed and the first, lower spring 24 being compressed, and as a result the valve being opened.
  • the lower, second electromagnet 3 need in this case only have current flow weakly through it in order to draw the armature 21 fully into its lower position.

  • the north pole faces away from the valve disk 12 and the south pole faces toward the valve disk 12.
  • the longitudinal axis 13 of the valve shaft 1 therefore also forms the motion coordinate of the bar magnet 28.
  • a magnetoresistive sensor 31 is located on a sensor fixing 29 which, in the example of embodiment shown in Fig. 5, is mounted on a covering plate 30 seated on the fixing 17 for the annular electromagnets 2, 3.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif permettant de déterminer la position d'une unité de détection sensible au champ magnétique dans le champ magnétique d'un système d'aimant, qui présente au moins sensiblement un profil en forme de barre, le long d'une coordonnée de déplacement au moins sensiblement rectiligne qui s'étend parallèlement à un axe longitudinal dudit profil. L'unité de détection sensible au champ magnétique sert à mesurer une composante du champ magnétique qui s'étend dans un plan au moins sensiblement parallèle à l'axe longitudinal du profil, de manière au moins sensiblement perpendiculaire à cet axe. Le système d'aimant présente un pôle magnétique nord dans la région d'une première extrémité du profil, un pôle magnétique sud dans la région d'une seconde extrémité du profil, et une diminution du profil dans la région centrale s'étendant entre le pôle nord et le pôle sud. On tire ainsi parti d'une dimension du système d'aimant pour obtenir de meilleurs résultats du point de vue de la plage de mesure de position.
